Okay, I mixed up The Dream of Maxen and The Dream of Rhonabwy — easy mistake.
One’s a mythic honeymoon.
The other’s a beautiful, empty nightmare.Rhonabwy dreams of Arthur… who’s just playing chess while messengers beg him to act.
It’s Tywin Lannister energy.
Cold. Regal. Absolutely useless.And screw it — you try pronouncing Gwalchmei.

Makes you wonder how early we equated wealth with power — or more precisely, how tools of wealth (horses, land, mobility) became stand-ins for authority itself.
Maybe the myth is reminding us: kingship isn't innate. It's just someone who used to ride.

Just realized that the First Branch of the Mabinogi starts with Pwyll and Arawn doing some ancient version of Freaky Friday.
Arawn says: “You’ll rule my kingdom, sleep beside my wife, and wear my face for a year.”
Pwyll: “Seems legit.”Mythic body-swapping, divine trust exercises, and magical honor codes — glad to know Lindsay Lohan has a clear mythological ancestor.

Part of the fun of reading The Mabinogion is confidently pretending I know how to pronounce names like Manawydan, Llwyd, and Pryderi—when in reality, I’m just mumbling fantasy syllables like I’m casting spells.
If it sounds mythic, that’s good enough.

On Gŵyl Awst, the Lady of the Lake rose at dawn, and once, she stayed.
From their union came Rhiwatton of the Yellow Hair, healer and sun-born child, ancestor of the Physicians of Myddfai.

'So Olwen Came' based on an excerpt from the Welsh Fairytale (see alt for the excerpt!) I really want to revisit this, it's been 9 years since I made it and I have new ideas and a newfound interest in historical costuming... #fairytale #watercolour #olwen #welshmyth

Day one of Folktober is the sad Welsh tale of a Gelert the dog! A loyal good boy he was mistakenly killed by his owner because it was believed he had killed their child. But in fact he'd saved the kid from a wolf. No good deed goes unpunished hey!
